• Visual Studio Custom editor in VS 2005 using embedded Visio 2003 Drawing Control

  Hi, I am attempting to create a custom editor integrated with VS 2005 in C#. The editor will use the Visio 2003 Drawing control (which is an ActiveX control) embedded into it. I ran the VS Integration Project wizard, selected a custom editor as an option, chose an extension type, generated my project, and then modified the generated code to use the drawing control instead of the RichTextEditor. If we open up only one document in the solution everything works as it is supposed to. We can load a Visio document, catch the events from the drawing control, and interact with it without problems. If another document in the solution is opened up along side of it (new instance of the editor and the drawing control) it too works ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. XBox 360 controllers for the PC

  Hi, I had a question about controllers that plug into the PC. I understand that only XBox 360 controllers are supported by XNA. I also understand (I think) that wired only controllers work as they need to be plugged into the USB port on the PC. Actually the last point is now not valid since I discovered the wireless controller for Windows and 360. But this isn't available until 2007. Does anyone know if this wireless controller is an actual controller or just a receiver for an existing wireless controller Cheers, Steve Yeah I was hoping the receiver would be out for the holidays. Instead I picked up a Play 'n Charge kit and later smacked myself for not reading the FAQ (it doesn't work). I st ...Show All

• Visual Basic Rounding up to the next 100.

  Ok I'm new at this so hope I have the right forum to be asking this question I am writing an application that works out the square area of an item, but the result has to be to the next 100. So for example sake if it is 720 it needs to go to 800 to work out the area, or if it is say 970 it will need to go to 1000. The program is for costing of sheets if your intrested and we cost by per 100mm. Any ideas or samples of code would be greatfully apreciated. Ok I have tried this and it still does not give the correct answer. ie I entered the size for the hight times the depth (900 -140 = 760 should round up to 800, then depth at 550 should round up to 600) the answer would be 0.96 but I get 0.91.

  How Do I Set RecordSource in VBA to a Predefined Query For example... Me.RecordSource = qryAllUsers Does not work. Thanks, Dave Is qryAllUsers a String containing the SQL select query text, or is it a QueryDef object RecordSource expects to be passed a String, not a QueryDef. If you're trying to pass the latter, it ought to be snagged as a compile-time error. Can you give any more information about how it "doesn't work" ...Show All

• Windows Forms How do you convert Plaintext to Rich Text problem free?

  Hi, I'm currently writing a simple text editor in Visual C# 2005 Express which has some syntax highlighting for the MIPS Assembly language. I use a RichTextBox control to color the keywords and it works so far, except for one problem: when I copy text from (or load in) a plain text source file, the text (using Currier New) is out of alignment in some places. In other words, the text is lined up correctly if you view it in notepad, but in my program it seems that anywhere there are tab characters everything is out of whack. Curiously, if you copy the same text into Word Pad, it has the same problem, even if you choose a non-variable width font like Currier New. I guess what I'm trying to say is copying a plain text file into RTF edito ...Show All

• Windows Forms Question in ListView Operations

  Hi Guys, I am new to Visual Studio 2005 Express and have a couple of questions regarding the ListView control: Suppose I have a ListView1 control that has two columns; Clumn1 and Column2 How do I add an item to each column separately Whenever I add item it is added to Column1 and I am unable to add an item to Column2 How do I read the items of each column one by one from beginning to end Thanks in advance. A. Shukri The method that you use to add an item returns the object corresponding to new entry. you can access the subitems[1 to numcolumns - 1] to set the values for each columns. You iterate using Items collection to scan all rows, and use the SubItems collection to scan all c ...Show All

• Windows Forms Change default icon on the application's exe file??

I have found out how to: * change the icon on the application window's left upper corner * set the icon that's showing in add/remove programs dialog * change the icon on a shortcut placed on the users desctop (by adding the icon to the programfolder and then change the shortcut's icon-property to that icon)...
